WeBUILT DFW in on a mission to build affordable, permanent housing for autistic and neurodiverse adults who have a desire to live independently in a community setting where they can have friends and support. We are modeling our community after WeBUILT in Clackamas, OR that has successfully built a thriving community for neurodiverse adults to live for the rest of their lives.
The need in Texas is especially great as Texas ranks very low (49th out of 50 states) in providing benefits and housing for special needs adults. WeBUILT DFW's goal is to enable them to live successfully at their highest level of independence when their parents are no longer able to care for them. WeBUILT's aim is to help eliminate the isolation and frustrations so often associated with neurodiverse adults who are trying to strike out on their own without needed support.
Periodic informational meetings (posted on Facebook) will be held for interested adults and their parents.
Coming together to create a community where neurodiverse and autistic adults can affordably live at their highest level of independence.
Funds will be used for training neurodiverse adults to live independently as a start to developing this community. Once land is acquired, funds will also be used for costs associated with site development, rezoning, and building plans.
